## Changelog

### 1.0 (2026-10)

A complete rewrite.

- **Full post text** as HTML, plain text and Markdown, with `isPaywalled` / `isTruncated` flags for paid posts.
- **The whole archive**, not just the latest ~20 posts (`maxPostsPerPublication`).
- **Any input**: publication URLs, **custom domains**, subdomain names, single post URLs and `@author` handles.
- **Filters**: date range (absolute or relative), free or paid, post type, keyword search, newest or most popular first.
- **One row per post** (previously one row per substack with a nested `posts` array), with publication data such as subscriber counts on every row.
- **Error rows** (`"type": "error"`) explain any input that couldn't be scraped, instead of the run silently returning nothing.
- **Faster and more reliable**: plain HTTP instead of a headless browser, with automatic pacing when Substack rate-limits.

**Breaking change:** the output format changed (see above). The old `substacks` input field still works.

### 0.1

The original version: a profile and the latest ~20 posts per substack (title, date, stats, preview), without post text.
